[ANN] MoinMoin Release 0.5

[Jürgen Hermann]

A WikiWikiWeb is a collaborative hypertext environment, with an emphasis on
easy access to and modification of information. MoinMoin is a Python
WikiClone that allows you to easily set up your own wiki, only requiring a
Web server and a Python installation.

This release features graphical smileys, processing instructions (page
redirection, multiple input formats, comments), a RandomPage macro,
configurable HTML page footers, and the usual set of bugfixes.

The code is now refactored to modules, and as expected a lot easier to
extend and maintain. While some of the new features are not fully
finished, some quite useful ones are (see the list below), and the active
code base has reached some maturity.

As a consequence of the multi-module implementation, starting with this
release you need to have the "MoinMoin" directory in your python path,
since "moin.cgi" is now only a small driver to a package named
"MoinMoin" (said directory). See "INSTALL" for more information.

As a compensation for the slightly more complex setup, there is now a
"test.cgi" script to check your installation. For multi-wiki setups, the
new scheme is actually easier (only one directory you need to update).
